Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Listing accuracy
The downstairs bedroom was so cold that it was inhabitable to sleep in. We tried for a few hours but couldn’t take it. A small space heater was brought by but didn’t do much for the space. One of my guests ended up sleeping upstairs on the floor. It should’ve been disclosed when I rented this space. I want to ask the owner if we could be compensated for this mishap.
